Example work, explained
Making good a damaged plaster wall
The problem
Loose, blown or damaged plaster leaves an uneven surface that paint cannot reliably cover. The condition of the background matters as much as the visible patch.
The work involved
Once moisture sources and material concerns are addressed, protect the room, prepare the affected area and reinstate the agreed plaster finish with suitable materials.
Checks and next steps
Check the repaired area and its edges, explain drying and decoration requirements, and identify whether painting is included or needs a separate visit.

Questions about plasterers, plaster repairs & skimming
Can you repair a ceiling while it is still wet?+

Is painting included with plaster repairs?+
Only if the quotation includes it. Plaster needs suitable drying and preparation before decoration; we can quote the repair and finishing stages together.
